I am not sure why this video is rated 3 on average. It should be 5. This is something everyone should watch.

It's been votebotted. All of my videos were hit about a month ago.

Nice one. Its impossible to listen to too much Dawkins, I submit.

[RationalFuture]

Damn, Dawkins is getting on my nerves ;) Even with all my skepticism and critical thought I can't find even one unsound argument in his words... God bless that man (lol)

The first one is indeed sad. Science's greatness lies in it's uncertainty and it's ability to be proven wrong. I just wish to all human beings to understand that it is stupid not to account for evidence or counter-arguments.

Peace and Reason.

@CognosSquare I was gonna add more names but you're limited to 500 notes.:p

@Dietseleeuw please dont forget about user philhellenes and TheoreticalBullshit .

@CognosSquare I've been hunting down Dawkins everywhere on YouTube and elsewhere and watched and listened everything. Fortunately I keep stumbling upon new videos of him and discovered many other great minds out there like Neil deGrasse Tyson, Carl Sagan, Carolyn Porco, Dan Dennett, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens and the YouTube stars like Evid3nc3, TheThinkingAtheist, NonStampCollector, PatCondell, CompletelyLovely, DarkMatter2525, EdwardCurrent, 43alley etc. Can't listen too much;)

I'm suprised on how some creationists (if not most) can go to the level of immorality of voteboting a video in order to pretend that their baseless religious claims structured on ignorance are better options.

It only shows how their beliefs are irrational and how far they can go with their delusion.

[omnissient]

creationist votebots. Look at the stats. It had 5 stars then suddenly it dropped to 3 star in a moment.

I wonder, did Jesus have Golgi apparatuses?

[mmartini50]

True enough, it is high irony that the humility of science leads us to label evolution a theory, thus giving the faithful a stick to beat us with (or so they think).

But then, most believers are far too dumb to appreciate irony anyway - or even to know what it is (unless they Google it). It's too subtle an idea for your average religious believer.

Everyone should abandon respect for religious beliefs!
